Fat Transfer to Improve Hourglass Figure

Steven H. Williams, MD answers: Possible to replace upper thigh fat after laser liposuction?

I had laser liposuction done on my saddle bags. Too much fat was removed, giving me a very boyish figure. Is it possible to replace some of the fat to my upper thighs in order to achieve a more natural feminine contour?

Thanks for your question -

Fat transfer (from your abdomen or other areas) can be a good way to correct contour issues after liposuction.  The key is waiting enough time for the previous surgery to heal.  Give it 6 months and find a board certified plastic surgeon to help you with your goals.
 

I hope this helps.
